INNOCENT

He must have you

"Let me see that..."

You pulled up his shirt and gasped. His body is covered with cuts both long or short. There were some burnt scars too.

"What happened?" You trailed them one by one, "It looked hurt..."

"Do you really want to know?" He watched your fingers tracing on his body.

You can't answer him immediately. Jungkook never shared anything too personal about him. It's quite clear why now. He hid it.. It did look so painful. How long did he have it? And why did he have it?

Until a realization hits you.

"Jungkook, did your parents do this?"

He smirked, "Yes, they did." Jungkook showed you his back. He had even more scars back there. You don't know what to think, "Now you pity me, don't you?"

"But why?" You looked for the answer in his eyes. Jungkook moved aside and laid next to you, "Jungkook..."

"I don't want your pity, y/n ."

"You are right. You don't need it. But we are friends and I want to share your burden." You sit facing him. Your arm hugging your knees.

"I just kissed you. I never thought of you as my friend, Y/n."

"... that's actually a good point..."

"My father used to hit me. When he died. My mom married another man who also hit me. He is even worse than my father.

My mom cheated on his husband over and over again. And I had to pay for it. What did I know? I'm just a kid."

Jungkook said it as if it was nothing to him.

He had his own story too...

You hugged him so tight wishing he didn't break. Why? How could someone abuse a kid like him? How old was he when he had to receive all of this?

Jungkook always acts like he is strong. He always shows everyone his intimidating power.It's not that you pity him, he doesn't need that. But... Now you understand...

Why he is who he is...

"Was it your mom you talked to on the rooftop?" He nodded. Jungkook caressed your back, "Do you still live with them?"

"I live with my mom. But she is barely home. Do you have any more questions?

I won't ever talk about this again."

"Is she treating you well?"

"She is barely home, Y/n. I barely met her." All he acted with was your mom.

Oh, Jungkook...

"It's better if you are with someone like Taehyung. He always works hard. And he loves you so much too..." You cried to hear such a word from him.

"Don't say that." Your heart aches for him.

"I love you too. But I would never give you a perfect family. Girls like that shit." He caressed your face.

"There is no such a thing like a perfect family, Jungkook..." You relaxed a bit.

You know it best... Perfect Family...

"Your family looks perfect to me. Mother who is taking care of you. Father who is working hard to get you warm and full. Your big brother who is not around. You are their little princess. I want to ruin your innocence so badly at the time."

"My father has a second family... He lives with his younger wife..." You finally admit it. You never mention this to Taehyung or Jimin. You were too embarrassed, " My mom has to accept it for me..."
